PCR testing

Sore throat, dry cough, body aches, and fever are signs of a real flu. It is caused by Influenza viruses type A and B. Like Corona, Influenza is infectious and is transmitted through droplet infection.
Sampling appointment at the City Test Center Vienna Book appointment →
The diagnostic detection of the Influenza viruses is done by means of PCR analysis. A deep nasal or throat swab is taken.
During the sampling at the Covid-19 Test Center, the Influenza analysis can be offered in combination with the Corona PCR analysis. A nasal or throat swab is sufficient for both evaluations. A gargle test is also available. Here, the sample is searched for specific virus RNA: Sars-CoV-2, Influenza type A, Influenza type B.

The PCR test is sensible
- To determine active infection: Do I have no illness, only Corona or Influenza, or do I have both illnesses.
- Preventive measures before visiting nursing homes or hospitals
- Monitoring in companies
The test is virus-specific. The positive result is considered secure. The PCR analysis is the gold standard in the analysis of DNA and RNA fragments. Therefore, the PCR test is recommended by the health authorities. The swab is taken at our City Test Center at Trinicum LAB in Zaunergasse 4 (1030 Vienna) under safe conditions and the highest hygienic standards. The subsequent evaluation of the sample is carried out by the in-house laboratory Trinicum LAB under the supervision of a specialist in laboratory medicine.
